You want to be a little careful with a "string". Technically,
Fortran doesn't have them. It has character variables and they
are a little different from C strings. In particular, they have a
fixed length and don't have any special termination character.
Blank fill happens automagically in places where you might not
expect it.

And, simply to fill out the other end of the spectrum :), truncation if
the target character variable isn't long enough to hold the operand.
